Drive Home
03:42
|

There is so much more I'm aware
But I swore I'd never go there
To hold against // it isn't fair
I'm still learning what it means to share
It's snowing just a little on my drive home
You said, "pray, wait, hope"
I said "how long am I waiting for?"
You said "until you know"
There are absences in scenery
I can't remember, it's escaping me
Shouldn't I be more afraid?
I forgot but i'm not standing brave
Unfolding what's important
What's important anyway?
As I focus on feeling
Feeling today

Oh, Familiar
03:15
|

|
Oh, familiar
I'm making room inside
This cluttered place you occupied
Oh, cascaded
Building up to stay alive
These notions I'll cast them aside
I got so close to fearing
So it's not just my believing
I's now set on leaving
All the ones that needed healing
You still are the one that's stealing
I no longer feel your breathing
I know time brings changing season
Hard heart, no longer freezing
Oh, departure
Leaves changing on my mind
They always tend here to arise
Oh, the former
I'm looking forward redefined
I'm leaving all this behind

Love & Nothing
04:02
|
|||
|
You couldn't put it down
It's all you could think about
There is a hurricane love & nothing
Could tear you down
It's alright
If I keep thinking i'll think myself out
Turn off the lights
Really all they ever do is doubt
Tonight
Could I really ever live without
But you're right
If I put it up you won't put it out
There is a peace that passes
Your own understanding
There's a blurred line
When i'm making strides
I'm wasting
You're waiting
For me
I'm shaping
You're chasing
At least

On My Sleeve
04:10
|
|||
|
Sometimes I feel so in control
& love is just so natural
But to carry it in my soul
Proves harder yet for me to hold
My heart, I'll wear it on my sleeve
Pour it out, carry me
Swaying, delicate symmetry
I let these things come naturally
What i'm trying to figure out
What me must construct exactly
& what is supposed to come
So easily

Some Time
04:54
|
|||
|
This is innocent speculation
We're just takin', we're takin' what we're given
Is this what they're taking about
When they say that there is division
Some time, some time has passed me by
Some time, some time until I try
Some time, that we're alive
Some time, some time has passed me by
Sufjan's wailing in the back
As I pull all these ideas together
There's nothing left that we haven't checked
This new direction, half hearted affirmation
Now things aren't materializing
Mostly over I won't even try
I think it's better now to simplify
I think it's better now to simplify

The Correspondence
03:54
|
|||
|
Put it on, so I can feel it
Bring it all back, so I don't lose it
So I can remember I don't miss it
These songs the correspondence
But I can't lose it
You've already proved that
You make your room, you excavate it
You can't start building until you tear the walls down
The ones we build, blood sweat and tears
They all came down, not how we planned it
It's not how I wanted it, But what do I know
I couldn't live without it, I know
When the snow starts to melt
I'll take notice
It feels so far away tonight
I want to let it go
These songs the correspondence
|
||||
7. |

|
You're always waiting
I can count on that
anticipating
I can expect that
You're on the look out
You're on the look out
Somehow you find your way
You make it here anyway
& maybe that's a good thing
Maybe that's Him building
Now you only look past
You're never looking back
I never gave you a chance
You're never looking back

Lift
02:08
|
|||
|
I want to hear You
I want to feel You
Closer hold me closer
keep me still
Fill me completely // Complete You
I call to You
I'll hide myself in You
I'll be made new
I'll lift it up to You
Closer hold me closer
Keep me still
Fill me completely // Complete You
Oh perseverance must finish it's work
I'm sure of what I hope for

These Things
03:19
|
|||
|
In the burning house that is your hands
I taught myself to understand
The way to move and how to be a man
The way to move and how to be a man
The dark rooms are never dark enough
I'm desperate still can't fill me up
Nothing seems to wake me up
Nothing seems to wake me up
And I’m still trying to bleed you out
I’m still dying to put you out
They say these things take time
But God don’t ask for mine
In the morning i’ll wake long enough to see
The sun’s not up and your waiting there for me
I’m still too afraid to disagree
I’m still too afraid to disagree
Do you think i’d be so careful
If it was in the air, no
Am I ever gunna really settle?
Am I ever gunna really settle?

Too
05:30
|
|||
|
To uproot and break down
To destroy and over-throw
To build and to plant for You
For You
Oh Lord I call to You; come quickly to me
But my eyes are fixed on You
Oh Sovereign Lord
In You I take refuge
Do not give me over to death
Keep me from the snares

Rest My Head
04:21
|
|||
|
Soon I'll be coming when if feels right
I promise Ill come running when the guilt pours in
Spring is here & nothing
& I have yet to listen
I know I shouldn't be so afraid
Walking next to him
Truly I can't help but hesitate
And now I'm reminded
I'm dying to burn for you I'm needing your grace
Be careful what you wish for
He hears what you say
I know I shouldn't be so afraid
Walking next to him
Truly I can't help but hesitate
And now I'm reminded
My reservations, I'm throwing them away
It'll never happen if I don't act today
We were drowning knowingly in shame
I'm addressing undressing it Tuesday
No more trying leaving us afraid
I promise, I promise, I promise to restrain
I just want to feel I pray
I'm asking for an earthquake
I'm holding on I'm waiting
Till' I can rest my head in your embrace
